They also do not fit my AK but hey that's okay as well as I'm only out $10 for the two. But do any of you have a clue as to what they might fit? So far it looks like my ammo fits - but they're weird looking mags to me anyway.

I'll see if I can get a couple of good ones and post them for you AntiqueDr.

Damn strange though because they were supposed to be for my AK - oh well be back soon.

Sorry, Doc but this is somewhat fuzzy. I've got to go to the store and get some stuff (batteries for one) and I'll try to take a better picture with this camera.

Sure do look like an AK mag, does it come close to fitting? Maybe you just need to use a little "wiggle" to get them in.

Guys, I'm not even sure it's for 7.62x39 ammo - I could only get 2 rounds in the mag before it wouldn't let me put any more in. I'll check it out real good early tomorrow - but it's still not what I ordered (they are a lot longer than my 10 round mags - so if they do carry more they won't be legal for my AK and I won't use them).

I'll let you both know how this goes.

Update - nope there is no way it was designed for my AK - the whole mag is far too narrow at the top compared to mine and it literally just rattles when I try to seat it in place - it's not made for my rifle that's for sure. And the search continues (lol) for what it belongs to.

I had to look back through my books to see which rifle you have, then it snapped. You have the Hungarian FEG SA2000M, which takes a very specific magazine. Looks like this:

The mags you have probably fit the WASR-10 which is a Romanian AK. The Hungarian mags are getting harder to find, and actually are getting a bit pricey. If you can buy them under $25 each, buy as many as you can.
